How to choose a hot tub for your space

Start with the installation footprint, then the bathing layout. A diameter or side length describes only part of the decision: an external heater needs its own space, while an integrated heater occupies part of the tub interior.

Compare the actual size options

The round fiberglass and round acrylic models list 1800 and 2000 mm choices. The polypropylene round model offers 1600–2200 mm. The two Ofuro models have different published dimensions, so their shared shape name does not mean they fit the same space.

Choose material and heating separately

Fiberglass, acrylic and polypropylene identify the tub interior. Timber cladding is a separate exterior choice. An acrylic finish does not establish the heater grade or massage equipment. Read the selected options and confirm the final bill of materials.

Prepare a useful enquiry

Measure the access route as well as the site. Record the narrowest passage, turning space, surface and any lifting obstruction. Send the model, chosen size, desired heating and delivery postcode. Ask for filled weight, required clearances and a final drawing before building a base.

Compare the complete cost

The configurator adds published option prices to the manufacturer’s reference starting amount. VAT, freight, unloading and installation are not calculated here. Compare written quotations on the same equipment and delivery basis. A cheaper starting price may represent a different supplied configuration.
